Early Macs are not really multitasking in the sense that newer machines are. Each running application has to hand back control to the operating system as a part of its main loop (t…

Here is my experience, having worked on a competing low-code/no-code platform for several years: - can be great for quickly getting a proof of concept up and running - may suit you…

Neat idea, I wonder how it’s handling communications under the hood. Tcp/ip stack? Serial? It will be interesting to toy with if the author decides to release it and the source cod…

Lots and lots of Bolts on there if you take a look

Nice work! If DeskHop could be made to work with a Bluetooth mouse, it would be even better. FWIW I was looking for a similar solution recently. I've got a magic trackpad, keyboard…

In Toyota's hybrid synergy drive, the electric motor system is inputting to the same transmission as the ICE engine, and is an integral part of the casing. You can see a cutaway of…

Yep, not worth the additional discount for me. I'm not giving AT&T my bank account information or any authorizations around it

I certainly didn't mean to suggest that having a GitHub profile could be a negative. My point isn't about identifying red flags, but about pointing out areas that could be improved…

I've held various roles over the years and personally believe that public contributions and innovative open source projects will often impress potential employers. Despite not codi…

My buddy has an 89 Prelude that got stolen a couple of times. It basically got driven around and left with an empty tank around town both times and no signs of break in. I think th…

I have never sent or received a DM on twitter

I'm currently working on replacing the factory KJet on a 83 308 QV engine that's been swapped into a 77 308 GTB to a MegaSquirt 3 unit, with coil on plugs from a newer Corvette. Fu…

Happens with their toner cartridges on laser printers too. I bought an HP laser, used some toner carts off Amazon, then got a software update and it wouldn’t recognize the toner ca…

My first job was writing VBA programs on top of extremely complicated Excel 97 spreadsheets to prevent input errors and provide a cleaner UI. Unfortunately I don’t think I’ve ever …

What state do you live in that rural roads are 45? On the entire west coast they’re at least 55 and the average speed is more realistically in the mid 60s. I think in some of the s…

I’ve looked into one of these and they’re completely illegal in my state, no way to register them without gaming different dmv stations and getting a clueless dmv rep who doesn’t k…

I had an NT4 workstation, a hex editor, and no internet connection at my first job. I spent a lot of time modifying the text in explorer.exe, calc.exe, and other apps. It was a lot…

The training going from apprentice to electrician is long, there’s lots of hard work, and the pay at the apprentice end isn’t good. It’s a good career to start in from a relatively…

Yes, I agree, if it's cash or some sort of monetary component, it should be relatively significant. I'm a big fan of thanking people for their efforts and then telling them to take…

I went through great lengths to get it somewhat usable on slow CPUs. This is really where I spent the majority of my time. Check out my blog post introducing nuklear QuickDraw here…

Nuklear is great. I’ve spent countless hours hacking around with it. I’ve also built a customized version for classic Macintosh systems (down to System 2.0 or so) and built some si…

Porsche Taycan has a 2 speed transmission: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a28903274/porsche-taycan-t...

Potentially! The trouble with these machines is they don't have a factory serial port. There were a few companies that made serial port expansions for this generation of machines. …

I got an RSS feed going! I was able to add it to NetNewsWire. I need to go through and add descriptions to my previous posts still, but at least I'm up and running now. Thanks agai…
